Heath Ledger is a federal case

While Britney Spears’ insanity was determined not to be a federal case, Heath Ledger’s death is getting the federal treatment. Two doctors are currently being scrutinized by federal drug investigators, according to NY Daily News:

The doctors – one in California, one in Texas – are believed to have supplied the “Brokeback Mountain” star with the powerful painkillers Oxycontin and Vicodin, law enforcement sources said. Authorities want to know if the drugs were prescribed illegally. “It’s an ongoing investigation,” a law enforcement source told The News Tuesday. “It’s not clear if there was any wrongdoing.”

Somehow I hope Sam Lutfi is blamed for this. And also Pete Wentz. Then they have to share a jail cell in Guantanamo Bay with a Heath Ledger fan named RazorCock McButtLover. Dear Jesus, if you’re up there, please make this happen. I’ll be a good boy for the rest of the year, I promise. I’ll eat all my vegetables and go to church. Though I can’t promise not to bring my Gameboy because, Christ, that shit is boring. Amen.

The stupid fucker would have ended up rigamorting on the floor anyway, no matter who gave him the pills. Granted, doctors are little more than high class drug pushers (especially the shrinks), but a guy has to take some personal responsibility as well. When you are on THAT much medication for psych problems, you have to take a good long look in the mirror and say, “Do I REALLY need all this?”

Unless you have SERIOUS mental issues, you are nothing more than a pussy for taking so many escapist drugs.

I’m sure they’re focusing on the narcotic painkillers, not the psych meds. Back when he went ass-up, on one of the threads here somebody explained that heroin junkies – with money – switch to Oxycontin, Percocet, and Vicodin (and others) so that they can pass for “cleaned up.” It doesn’t work if you’re being drug tested, but if you just need to show up at a job without fresh needle marks or withdrawal symptoms, it works just fine. Obviously popping pills is easier to hide than shooting up. Not to deny that he also had serious psychiatric problems as well, along with meds for all that – clearly he was both a junkie and a pussy.

clearly there was some shady dealings going on. that’s why THING ONE, aka mary-kate olsen didn’t insist on that WHORE, aka the unlicensed massage therapist calling 911. sending security guards over = cleaning out the prescriptions before the po po come. in the end, we’ll probably find out that THING ONE AND THING TWO, aka the olsen twins are also on the list of celebrities getting legal drugs from shady doctors. let’s see how much additional pity mileage michelle williams can get off of this.
